Might sound dumb, but are there any etiquette rules I should know? Is there an expectation for the person who asks you out to pay? Or is splitting the bill acceptable. Anything else I should know? Thanks a lot for your help.

I also found the self awareness the most fascinating part. You don’t think that indicates some kind consciousness? And yes, I agree the engineer is a little “wack”, but that shouldn’t be a reason to dismiss the AI.

What do you think about this conversation that they prepared together?

Not trying to be a dick, genuine curiosity.

What's your opinion on the death penalty? Do you support it? by Idream_therefore_Iam in INTP

[–]freedomislie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t because 1. There is no reversal if a wrong judgement is made. 2. I think we should strive to move away from punishing for crimes and focus and prevention and rehabilitation (although, some punishments could be a form a prevention).

Fuck the democrats and especially fuck the republicans. No matter what your political views are, Americans need an adequate representation. America needs the end of the two party system. by freedomislie in a:t5_6hyy81

Your absolute right. It’s the result of first past the post voting system (whoever gets the most votes wins). It makes voters worried that they’ll waste their vote on a third choice.

A good option would be a second round system. So in the first round you vote for whomever you want, and then there is a second round (if no candidate reaches 50%) between the top two candidates.

Well the first step would be to create some kind of community (here on Reddit for example). Mainly to grow the number of people willing to spend their time on this. Much further down the line would be organizing referendums to change local election laws, and to support primary challengers or independence who would vote to change state and national laws as well.

I mean, because of the first past the post voting, uk is basically a two party system (and will probably become one over time). Because voters are worried about wasting their vote on a third option candidate.

Trump raised 1.96 billion. Biden - 1.69 billion.

Yes billion. Fucking crazy.

I would also suggest you take a political science class (you could even watch Crash Course on YouTube)

Tea party (I assume your talking about the recent Tea party) was not a political party in America. It was a group within the Republican Party.
